computer turns off watching videos or playing games

cannot watch videos or play games

When I try to watch a video or play games online (game colony) it won't let me it says I need Adobe Flash, when I try to install Adobe flash, he says he can't because I use a 64-bit browser and I need a 32-bit browser... How can I do this
Thank you

Hello Ollyvon,

Thank you for posting. Vista 64 bit has a 32-bit version of Internet Explorer is installed by default. You can open it by clicking on the Program Files (x 86) folder on local disk C: your computer. There should be two Program Files folders. The "Program Files" folder is for 64-bit programs and the "Program files (x 86)" will contain all 32-bit programs, including Internet Explorer 32-bit.
Look in the Program Files (x 86) folder to find the "Internet Explorer" folder. Once inside, look for the file "iexplore" or "iexplorer.exe". It will be 32 bit IE. You can click right and creat a shortcut on the desktop for easy access later.
Using the 32-bit version of IE you will be able to install flash.

Please let me know if this helps you. Zack

How do you turn off security settings while playing games

Hello! I have the same problem my computer showing a breach of access with all my Big Fish Games!

They do not at all help us! How do you turn off security before starting to play my games? That would be real useful.

Thank you so much. I hope this works. I have more than 12 games with Big Fish and now what is happening.

Try disabling UAC. Control Panel user accounts / turn user account on or off. Uncheck the option, click OK, and then restart your computer

Pc freezing when you watch videos and play games.

A few weeks ago, my pc started freezing after playing online games and watching videos on youtube. To be more precise, when I look at either videos or play WoW, the computer works normally. Sometimes when I do both it freezes or the screen goes black and I have to move forward by restarting the computer. I could say it is not always present, as many times it comes back after a few seconds. My pc is brand new, not more than 2 months of use. Games and videos are works perfectly on full settings graphics and sound, and the case is really cool to consider the facts such as overheating problems.

Thanks for reading, help and who helped me.

My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games.

My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games. Now it is not always the case, just sometimes. The other day I was playing Sims 3 all day, literally, with the graphics settings maxed out and had no problem. The next day, he would crash as soon as it finished loading, even with the graphics settings at the bottom. Today, it was working fine this morning and now it crashes again. I had the same problem on and off with other games as well, Halo 2, Kings Bounty, UT 3. Here is my system:

OS - Vista Ultimate 32 bit
Processor: Core 2 Quad Q9400 @ 2 .66GHz
RAM - 4 x 1 GB PC6400 DDR2/800
MB - MSI P7N SLI - FI
HARD drive - 150 GB x 2 (Raid 0) Raptor 10 k RPM
PSU - 1000 watts
GPU - NVidia GeForce 9800GT 1 GB (x 2 in SLI)

And the error I get from Event Viewer:

Filter event with the query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Processor' AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace '//./root/CIMV2' because of error 0 x 80041003.» Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is resolved.

I got the error almost everyday since I got the computer, about 10 months ago, but it only blocks the computer if I play a game. I tried the 'fix' that removes the WMI event viewer 10 error, but everything done was make sure the error is not logged. I also tried another fix I found me delete the files in the repository, but that no longer works. I also run scans of complete system of virus/malware Spybot Search & Destroy and AVG 8 and verified the updated driver for my hardware. I also ran diagnostic tool memory. Who has good/clean/current. Can it be fixed or what I have to reinstall the OS?

Hi JerHekSr,

Thank you for using answers Forum.

The first thing that comes to mind would be to check the motherboard manufacturer for an update of the firmware/BIOS.

The error message mentions "loadpercentage > 99' which looks like you are running may at maximum load of the CPU while the game and that is the cause of the crash. You could try a clean boot to prevent the using CPU resources while you play to see if it makes a difference of strtup programs.

To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts. This article describes how to solve problems in Windows Vista by performing a clean boot. This article also describes how to start the Windows Installer service and how to reset the computer so that it starts as usual.

Note When you perform a clean boot, you may temporarily lose some functionality. When you start the computer as usual, the function returns. However, you may receive the error message, or you can experience the original behavior.

If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.

a. log in the computer using an account with administrator rights.

b. click Start collapse this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.

The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .

c. under the general tab, click Selective startup , and then clear the Load Startup items check box. (The box use the Boot file is not available.)

d. on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft services check box and then click on disable all .

Note Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.

e. click OK , and then click restart .

Step 2: Enable half the services

a. follow steps 1a and 1B to start the System Configuration utility.

b. click on the Services tab and then click to select the hide all Microsoft services check box.

c. Click to select half of the check boxes in the Service list.

d. click OK and then click restart .

Step 3: Determine whether the problem returns

If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have initially enabled in the Service list.

If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the Service list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

If only one service is selected in the list of services , and you the problem persists, the service selected the cause of the problem. Go to step 6. If no service is causing this problem, go to step 4.

Step 4: Enable half of the startup items

a. perform a clean boot by repeating step 1.

b. click on the Startup tab and then click to select half of the check boxes in the startup item list.

c. click OK , and then click restart .

Step 5: Determine whether the problem returns

If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have originally selected in the startup item list.

If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the startup item list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

If only one startup item is selected in the startup item list, and you still experience the problem, start selected in the list element is the service that is causing the problem. Go to step 6.

If no startup item causes this problem, a Microsoft service most likely the cause of the problem. To determine which Microsoft service may be causing the problem, repeat step 1 and step 2 without selecting the hide all Microsoft services check box in each step.

Step 6: Resolve the problem

After you determine the startup item or the service that is causing the problem, contact the manufacturer of the program to determine if the problem can be solved. Or, run the System Configuration utility, and then click to clear the check box of the element of the problem.

Step 7: Reset the computer to start as usual

When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

Click on start to reduce this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER.

The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .

On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK .

When you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart .

I hope this helps. Chris

After the upgrade from Office 2007 to Ofice 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while.

After upgrade Office 2007 to Office 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while. When I turn on my computer, I get the splash screen indicating that Windows has finished unexpectedly and I would like to start in safe mode or normally (pluss a couple more choice...).

Appears not to occur if there is activity going on--as if do me some work or have itunes playing music or I'm just surfing the internet. Curiously, it seems not to happen if I close Internet Explorer and Outlook.

I shot all automatic updates for Windows Vista (32 bit) and Microsoft Office.

Hi B Odd Andersen,

I want to clarify if your computer seems to be sleeping or it completely closed after being idle for a while.

Method 1: If the computer is in power saving mode, check if you can wake the computer from this State by moving the mouse or pressing any key on the keyboard.

Method 2: Change the power to another and check to see if the problem persists
Change, create, or delete a power plan (scheme)

Method 3: check the logs in event viewer for more information on auto-off down

Open event viewer

What are the information in event logs? (Event Viewer)

Note: For your safety and security, it is not recommended to disable Windows Update.

2-3 days after the expiry of my warranty of one year, my computer turns off suddenly during use. I rebooted, but it stopped again.

2-3 days after the expiry of my warranty of one year, my computer turns off suddenly during use. I rebooted, but it stopped again.

The model is that the computer runs for 15-30 minutes, then suddenly stops, the system reboots, runs for 2-3 minutes, stops, restarts, spans less than a minute, stops, restarts, stop after a few seconds, etc., and at that time there I give until the next day when I repeat the same cycle all over. I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit and it is a model of Dell Inspiron 518. There is no error message but a beep at startup upward. I ran Windows repair program 'Start' who did a restore without success. The problem occurs even in Safe Mode.

Does anyone have a guess as to what is the diagnosis? Thank you.

Hello

Could be hardware or even heat and ventilation the related. Try using a small fan to increase ventilation. When a PC

As it does in Mode safe so you probably need technical support in a real store of the computer - no Peeks/leeks at BestBuy or other large shopping areas. Very difficult to solve if it does not remain under tension.
It remains under tension if you start from the disc of Vista?

Look in the Event Viewer to see if something is reported on these reboots.

How and when the computer turns off automatically?

Listen to internet radio, Sys Pref > saving energy on the default setting, wake up and radio program cut.

This is great... .buth how and when the computer turns off? When I reopen it wifi comes back, I'm correct when she stops she also turns off wifi?

Hello allan299,

Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

According to your post, I see that you have any questions on how and when your computer shuts down, and how the WiFi on your Mac is affected. I know it's nice to be able to properly manage what happens when your computer stops and starts in mode 'sleep'. I'm happy to help you find the best resolution.

You're right, when your computer stops completely it will turn the Wi - Fi. If you enable the wake for network access, Wi - Fi remains lit, and you can access shared resources on your computer, such as printers or iTunes shared playlists even when your computer is in "sleep". Definition of a calendar closing and start on your Mac can also be useful.

Check out the following resources that will help the set options that control the energy use of your computer, sleep, and wake-up times for your Mac and the calendar from your Mac to turn on or turn off or go to sleep:

OS X Yosemite: energy saver Preferences

OS X Yosemite: set sleep and wake up on time for your Mac

OS X Yosemite: A schedule for your Mac to turn on or turn off or go to sleep

Best regards.

On the start with progress bar page, after that it becomes a little more than half, the computer turns off.

MY MacBook Pro is frozen and I had to turn off get out of the frozen page and when I pressed the button to turn it on it makes the departure noise and then the progress bar lights. When it becomes a little to Midway, the screen goes black and the computer turns off.

The progress bar that starts from the left end appears when your startup disk is too damaged to mount. The illustrious progress is the functioning of the equivalent of disk utility (ERD). He is never more than half before taking a decision.

If your drive CAN be mounted, start-up continues normally.

If your drive cannot be mounted, your Mac stops, because there is nothing productive that it can do.

If your Mac is trying to start and crashes, which can produce always different results, but that doesn't seem to be the case here.

I recommend that you start in recovery and run utility disk (ERD) until it comes clean or is hopelessly.

My computer turns off during an update to windows xp and now windows xp will not load.

My computer turns off during an update to windows xp and now windows xp will not load. It gives me the option of last known good configuration and safe mode startup and normal startup, but it just goes back to the loading screen then flashes a blue error screen then back to display boot options. I don't have a recovery disc as the laptop does not have a CD-ROM drive or a floppy drive. I have the product key, but I don't know where or how repair the operating system.

Contact the manufacturer of your laptop as there must be a way to restore the computer. There may be a hidden restore partition.

Why my internet accounts automatically get disconnected after that my computer turns off by itself?

I have a Compaq PC with processor Dual-Core AMD Athlon X 2 5000, and it runs Windows Vista Edition Home Premium... In my view, that is running Service Pack 2. I use the computer to check my e-mail, my YouTube and Facebook accounts (and possibly other accounts spread I connect to).

I usually use Internet Explore to browse the web. Sometimes my computer turns off by itself due to overheating. But whenever when this happens, when I turn my computer back on and return to the use of the Internet, I've totally frustrated to find that all my accounts were automatically disconnected!

Even when I check these boxes to keep me connected to these accounts when I turn on the computer again after a successful stop, my accounts still get disconnected!

It only seems to happen when my computer turns off by itself without stopping... mainly due to overheating. When I turn on the computer again after a successful regular stop, my accounts are automatically saved on once again, due to activate me "Keep me connected" by checking these little boxes. But after a situation when the computer is off all the time (either by himself for a reason, either by me with strength to turn it off when my computer crashes), my accounts do not remain.

How can I prevent my accounts automatically be disconnected so that whenever I start the computer, after it turns off by itself, my internet accounts turned on? There must be a patch for this embarrassing situation here on the internet.

Perhaps because an improper shutdown / forced can inpact on different parameters.
